Journal Websites: More than "Online Journals"

We're seeing a trend among medical journal publishers to add interactive features and online-only content to their websites. This includes blogs, webcasts, PowerPoint and Flash slideshows, podcasts or other audio features, and "e-publication" -- articles that are not included in the paper edition of the journal. Most journal sites also offer "e-alerts," by which tables of contents are delivered through e-mail or RSS.
